A memory card of one published standard, such as the Multi-Media Card (MMC) or Secure Digital Card (SD), is modified to include the function of a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) according to another published standard. The controller of the memory card communicates between electrical contacts on the outside of the card and both the memory and the SIM. In one specific form, the memory card has the physical configuration of the current Plug-in SIM card with a few external contacts added to accommodate the memory controller and data memory. In another specific form, the memory card has the physical configuration of the current SD card, including external contacts.

An object of the invention is to embody a small and inexpensive passage selector, which can be applied by commonly using an index device even if the number of detector passages is changed, and which is easy to make inspection and maintenance. The passage selector of a reactor in-core nuclear-measuring apparatus of the invention includes: a drive motor; an index device that is driven by the drive motor and that makes a rotary output of a predetermined index number; a central rotating shaft that is driven to rotate by the index device and that causes a passage selecting guide tube to be located in opposition to any detector passage; and a speed-increasing and decreasing device that is interposed between an output shaft of the index device and the central rotating shaft, and that adjusts the index number of the central rotating shaft.

A process for manufacturing a prepreg with a carrier exhibiting excellent impregnating properties and thickness precision, which is particularly suitably used for preparing a build-up type multilayer-printed circuit board is provided. Also, a prepreg with a carrier prepared by the manufacturing process and a process for manufacturing a multilayer-printed circuit board utilizing the prepreg with a carrier are provided. There is provided a process for continuously manufacturing a prepreg with a carrier comprising an insulating resin layer having a backbone material of a textile fabric, (a) laminating the insulating resin layer side of a first and a second carriers comprising an insulating resin layer on one side on the both sides of the textile fabric, respectively, to form a laminate and bonding them under a reduced pressure, and (b) after the bonding, heating the laminate at a temperature equal to or higher than a melting point of the insulating resin.

When a color image is formed on a transparent sheet with a white color material as background color material and C, M, Y, K color materials as process color materials and has colors determined by the total amount of the color materials that are applied per unit area, image formation failures such as ink drooping and ink fixation failures are prevented from occurring. Of four colors or more including white represented by a CMYKW 1-bit pixel signal, the three colors C, M, Y (gray) are replaced with the color K. After the replacement, for three or more of C, M, Y, K, no white color ink is applied since the transparent sheet is opaque without the white color ink. This control process is effective to reduce the number of applications, i.e., the total amount of inks applied, thereby preventing image formation failures such as ink drooping from occurring.

A process for making modified N-acetylated chitosan comprising the steps of:a) forming an aqueous solution of chitosan in aqueous acid;b) mixing the resulting solution of step a) with an acetylating agent in a chitosan:acetylating agent sub-stoichiometric amount; andc) allowing the chitosan and acetylating agent to react for a length of time sufficient for substantial completion of the acetylation reaction.

A wood-based blasting material is formed for introduction into a blasting fluid by mixing high-density pellet particles of various sizes. The pellet particles are formed from sawdust or fiber pressed under high pressure, resulting in brittle pellets. The pellets may then be crumbled and screened into particles of an appropriate size. The particles do not disassociate into their constituent materials when mixed with the blasting fluid, and thus maintain their density during use in the abrasive blasting process.

A heat exchanger with multiple cooling circuits includes fins featuring at least two adjacent areas, a first one of the areas arranged in a first row of pipes and a second one of the areas arranged in a second row of pipes. A number of patterns are arranged in each of the areas. The number of patterns is determined by a specified heat transfer performance requirement for each of the areas.

Disclosed is an ornamental ignition switch cover for a motorcycle that provides a decorative and functional appearance while concealing the underlying ignition switch, ignition key, or the keyhole. The device takes the form of a knob or a lever made from metal or other suitable material. The knob portion includes a hollow cavity that provides coverage for the underlying ignition key or the keyhole. The knob portion connects to the ignition switch by an attachment mechanism, such as screws or magnets, which are provided on the knob portion or are provided about the ignition switch perimeter. In this way, the device provides an ignition cover with an outward look of a firearm cylinder or other personalized cover while concealing the presence of the ignition key or the keyhole. The device rotates clockwise or counterclockwise so that it may be locked and unlocked.
